We are currently presenting our work at the "Neue Perspektiven der Erdbeobachtung" in Bonn @DLR_SpaceAgency. Luise shows her study about linking of @GEDI_Knights lidar data with @FORMIND_de to estimate high resolution carbon fluxes for the entire Amazon rainforest 🛰️🌳🛰️
Forest modelling experts from Europe are currently discussing the perspectives of modelling @UFZ_de. Topics include droughts and forest management, remote sensing, AI, but also theory. Forest modelling helps us to understand the state of our forests and to study forest futures.
We had a great workshop "Perspectives of forest modeling" @UFZ_de with many interesting discussions. Many thanks to all participants. Our perspectives are also presented in our review paper: Tackling unresolved questions in forest ecology

It feels great to finally be in an in-person workshop again after more than two years (vaccination rate: 100%). Wonderful discussions on the future of forest modeling, and many great interactions with colleagues. Thanks for organizing @Rico_Fischer_ @BohnFriedrich @FORMIND_de!

It all started with a @FORMIND_de #simulation to study the effects of increased tree mortality in the forest edge. Now we have a tropical-wide analysis. Up to 500 million tons of carbon emissions every year in tropical forest edge areas

FORMIND Developer Week 2019 - Growing New Ideas
Once a year the @FORMIND_de developers meet to improve the source code and discuss new ideas. Stay tuned for the new release. #Ecologicalmodeling #Forest #Grassland #Coding #Teamwork
Today @TomPughLab presented his research on forest carbon turnover rates at the @UFZ_de in Leipzig. Combining inventory data, vegetation models, and satellite products, his work contributes to identifying and reducing uncertainties in terrestrial ecosphere estimates.
How do forests contribute to global carbon fluxes and what is the influence of land-use change and climate change? These and other questions can be investigated with the forest model FORMIND (see formind.org).
